Comic Convention has finally arrived and this year, it was held in New York from the 6th to the 8th of February. This is an annual event that all toy collectors are waiting for because of all the exclusive toys that they are able to get their hands on. Lucky people…!

Still remembered that last year during the San Diego CC, the Ironman Movie Mighty Mugg was up for sale as an exclusive. This particular toy is so hot that it is now selling at astronomical price. For those of you who are not aware of what an exclusive toy is, it is simply a toy that is only not available in normal retail store but is only available to that particular shop or event that is showcasing the toy and they are limited in quantity.

Some exclusives for this convention are like the ones shown below.These are vinyl toys from esctoy.

Singapore organised a somewhat similar event called the Anime Festival last year in November but it was very anime related so stores selling the more popular toys like Transformers and Mighty Muggs did not participate. Hopefully in the near future, there can be a major toy event held in Asia.
